The Design And Construction Of A Smart Access Door Control System Using RFID And Password (PDF/DOC)
Security system solutions for strategic facilities are critical to prevent the intrusion of unauthorized persons, however there are many types of automatic access control systems which are expensive and complicated to use. This paper focuses on the development of a simple security system that combines Radio Frequency Identification and password to provide a low cost and formidable access control for entrances. The system is built on ATMEGA8 Microcontroller that directs the RFID reader to scan and authenticate users’ identification tag and further request for password through a keypad before activating a motor to grant access. The Microcontroller which also controls a liquid crystal display was programmed using Microbasic language; the data of identification tags and password were stored in its database. The RFID reader was able to scan tags within 25cm range in two seconds, and open a prototype door within 3 seconds of entering the correct password. The motor closes the door after a preset 5 seconds delay. The system was implemented for 12 users, the components used are cheap and available; the system is formidable and reliable.

1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 BACKGROUND OF THE PROJECT
Security systems are very important in the protection of lives, premises and valuable resources. There are many advanced methods of providing security that have been developed and are in use in the last few decades, one important area is the security system required for strategic applications such as military bases, research centers, laboratories and other critical facilities. Such advanced security systems are complex and expensive making them implementable in high end applications only. However, with recent progress in technology and the growing need for increased security in civilian and other applications, many low cost solutions for security system have emerged with a range of degrees of sophistication, complexity and cost (Gill, Yang, Yao, and Lu, 2009).
Different access control automation techniques are available to reduce the system complexity and lower costs, these systems do not incorporate complex and expensive components. A home gateway is implemented to facilitate the interoperability between heterogeneous networks and provide a consistent interface, regardless of the accessing device (Udaya, Murty and Kurmar, 2013).
There is a wide range of Automatic Identification (Auto-ID) systems for access control in use, these includes magnetic stripes, Optical Character Recognition (OCR), barcodes, biometrics, smart cards and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). However, each of these technologies has their advantages and drawbacks. The OCR systems allow the use of manual and auto-identification simultaneously but the very high cost of the readers prevented its widespread use (Finkenzeller, 2003)
The use of barcodes is a cost-effective way for managing inventory, they have some disadvantages such as limited information-storing capacity; a strict line of sight requirement between the scanner and the barcode, which effectively prevents multiple barcodes to be processed simultaneously; limited data redundancy and error correction; and a lack of inbuilt data-security standards. The use of biometrics, such as fingerprinting, retina scans, iris scans, and voice recognition are strong identification solutions in automatic access control but these technologies are expensive and privacy invasive (Sweeney and Patrick, 2005).
Smart card and its derivatives such as memory card or microprocessor card solutions use standard credit-card sized plastic cards with an integral data storage system designed to make financial transactions secure and fast, but a with high cost of maintaining the reader (Goodrum, McLaren and Durfee, 2006). RFID tries to overcome the disadvantages of previous systems by improving the speed and accuracy of data collection and dissemination as well as reducing the overall cost. RFID systems rely on Radio Frequency to transmit a tag-specific unique serial number to a reader or interrogator (Amit and Berghel, 2011).
A RFID system is composed of three basic units, a transponder unit or tag with a unique identifier that facilitates auto-identification of any object to which the tag is attached, a reader unit or interrogator that manages the radio frequency communication with the tag and a middleware or reader interface layer, which is essentially a software that acts as an interface between the basic RFID hardware components, and the software application (Shoewu and Badejo, 2006).
There currently is not a definite industry standard for frequency, but the most common applications around the world use frequencies of 125 KHz and 13.56 MHz. There are three classes of the RFID tags; Active tags, Passive tags and Semi-Passive (Battery –Assisted Passive) tags. The Active tag has its own battery that is used to broadcast signals over great distances; it is usually bigger in size and capable of carrying more information. The Passive tag has no inbuilt power source, the signal from the RFID reader creates an electromagnetic field that powers the tag, and it is cheaper than the active tag. The Semi-Passive tag or Battery Assisted Passive tag (BAP) is equipped with an onboard battery that drives the chip’s circuitry but power for communication of the signal is derived from the reader’s electromagnetic field as in the case of passive tags (Gyanendra and Pawan, 2010).
The password identification system requires the user to enter a password (a set of numeric or alphanumeric characters) on a keypad which then grants access to the user if it matches the required characters residing on a database (Kyuhee and Mokdong, 2006).
The RFID system has its vulnerabilities such as card skimming and tag killing, other security issues are card spoofing, tag cloning and malwares (Amit and Berghel, 2011). This gave rise to the need for a simple and affordable system that will utilize the advantages of the RFID and also overcome its drawbacks; leading to the use of password identification in addition to the RFID for access control, this is the aim of this study.
1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT
The need for having a constant home protection has always been there. But in the recent times, considering a dramatic rise in petty crimes like robbery and theft, the need has been more strongly felt to have a fool proof protection of the belongings and the family members. Home security has come a long way in the last few decades. It was in the hands of a guard who manually provided surveillance during nights in the earlier days, but it was not fool proof as it was only normal for him to have momentary lapse of concentration. This device brought solution to this need. It ensures adequate protection against intruders.
1.3 AIM OF THE PROJECT

1.9 PROJECT MOTIVATION
Since innovation is so cutting-edge, one of a kind access control frameworks have turned out essential to win security dangers to different associations. Access control framework confines access to a property, a structure, or a space to approved people. In the field of data and protection security, door access control frameworks are assuming major indispensable jobs to shield associations. This is where everything is related with the framework, where anyone can get hold of information from wherever around the world. In this manner, hacking of one’s data is a noteworthy issue. On account of these perils, it is basic to have a type of individual recognizable proof (ID) to get to one’s own specific data. Security get to framework is exceptionally helpful to use at home, office and business structures. Every one of these years, different frameworks are acquainted with track the individual’s development. Among standard individual ID systems, secret key and ID card strategies are the most watched techniques. Be that as it may, it isn’t hard to hack password now and recognizable ID cards may get lost, henceforth making these strategies very sketchy. With the upgrade in the innovation, Framework Security is getting to be thought of significant worry in different associations and consequently advanced locks have turned into a significant piece of these security frameworks. There are numerous sorts of security frameworks that are accessible for security of our place. The main objective of this project was to ensure a proper security to building against theft or intruder.
